Kuoh Academy had a very strict curriculum and rules. It used to be an elite all-girls school since its establishment, but only recently became co-ed. But, even with the stream of new students, the strictness of the school hadn't lowered one bit.
Some would argue that it had only gotten worse since Sona Shitori took the SCP seat. Bunking, dozing off in class, disrespecting the teachers, or bullying others, any problems that were commonplace in other schools weren't tolerated in Kuoh Academy.
However, some people got off the hook when it came to these strict rules.
One period remained before lunch, and currently one of the students was roaming the school grounds even if they were supposed to be in class. With measured and sharp steps she found her to the old school building in the back. It hasn't been long since she joined the school so it would take a little time for her to get used to the new place.
"Finally found the clubroom." The girl with the short blue hair said standing in front of an old double door.
She left her classroom because she couldn't handle the wait. The person she wanted to meet was on the other side of the door. He's been here since morning, but she had to finish her classes, or so she was told. But, slipping out of her boring chemistry class she decided to take the chance.
She looked herself in the glass window nearby and fixed her uniform, setting her chin-length blue hair and the orange strand in place, she could say she looked the best she had in years. Clearing her throat her eyes turned towards the door again. She had practiced this for days, so she planned to do it without mistakes. Exhaling a sharp breath she knocked on the door.
But, before she could speak the door opened. Inside, he sat on the couch with a cup of tea in his hands. But, unlike her expectations, he wasn't alone.
"Would you like some tea, Xenovia?" Himejima Akeno, her senior stood in the corner of the room.
She still looked as prim and proper as this morning. But, Xenovia could sense something was amiss. Her sharp brown eyes lowered and she saw Akeno's legs. With a gait similar to a newborn calf she walked towards her. The teacup looked unsteady in her shaky hands. But, even if she looked sick, her skin radiated with newfound energy along with a healthy redness. Akeno reminded her of a newly bloomed flower.
"Akeno-san, how could you practice baby-making alone? I thought we made a deal?" Xenovia's eyes narrowed as Akeno showed a wry smile.
"Well, how about you talk with him yourself?" She turned to see a very confused Adam looking at them.
However, Xenovia took a deep breath and turned to him. Her back straight like an arrow she stood in front of him and locked eyes with him.
"Please make a baby with me too." Her clear and resolute voice resounded in the room.
Adam froze in place. What was this? He had to process too many things from the little words spoken to him. First of all, why was Xenovia here? The last he remembered she left for the church. And now she appeared before him as a reincarnated Devil? Moreover, what she said just now. Absurdness.
But, the more important question was, why would she ask that question?
"I know that I am direct, but please put a baby in me!" Her pure enthusiasm shocked Adam further.
No indirect actions, no impure thoughts, no such thing as plans or schemes. Just pure intentions and straightforwardness to pursue what she wants. Watching him that way, Akeno giggled. It wasn't every day she could see him get shocked.
"Xenovia… what did we talk about? Explain your circumstances before diving into that. You are overwhelming him." But, she still brought her back on track. Or at least she wanted to.
"You know that isn't gonna do much now." Adam countered. The arrow had left the bow after all.
"Ufufu, that is correct. But, just so you know, she got Rias' permission." Akeno enjoyed the look of shock on his face again. It only appeared when he dealt with women, and it fascinated her.
"Akeno-san why don't you sit down, it feels like you'll fall over at any second." Xenovia supported her for now, but this made her curious.
"How many times did you do it with him for you to end up in this state?" She didn't mince her words as her curiosity was far greater than any shame she could feel.
"When you are with him counting is useless, you'll often forget about everything as soon as things start." Akeno too wasn't one to sugarcoat things.
"He's that much of a beast?" Xenovia's interest was piqued.
"He's more than a simple beast. Let me show you what he did to me in the past hour." Akeno was about to move her unbutton her shirt but he spoke up.
"I am still here you know?" He was embarrassed to hear how she described him.
"See that? He doesn't like it when others see his women. He is very possessive. That is why I told you to take things step by step." Akeno giggled, but Xenovia took out a notepad to write that down.
"I'll be sure to become a woman you'd like to impregnate!" Xenovia's exclamation made Akeno laugh even more after she saw Adam's face.
'What is happening here?' Adam had not been this lost in a while. Thankfully, Rias came to his rescue before lunch break.
Upon her arrival, the first thing she did was explain to Adam about Xenovia's situation. After reporting about her mission and handing over the stolen Excalibur pieces. She left the church and returned to Kuoh to join Rias' peerage as her second knight.
"Why did you become a Devil?" Adam thought that it didn't make sense, after all, she had a robust faith in the God of this world. And she wasn't on good terms with the Devils, but then she did this.
"After I heard that the God I have prayed to didn't exist. I thought that I would lose all purpose. But, it didn't hurt as much as I thought, because you were there. I don't know why but because of you I didn't lose hope." Xenovia's earnest answer got her smiles from Rias and Akeno, though Adam sighed. He understood what happened now.
"So, to get close to you I decided to join Rias Gremory's peerage because you two looked like a couple." She bowed as Rias blushed giving Xenovia a short glare, unlike Akeno who gave her a not-so-discreet thumbs up.
"I do not have any bad motives, so please have a child with me." Xenovia said again.
"It was alright until the last part…" Adam's face twitched.
"I don't see much of a problem here." Rias tilted her head looking him in the eye, "That is unless you dislike her." At her words Xenovia gulped.
"More than that, I think it is because Adam can't handle how sudden this is." Rias had to agree with Akeno's words. And they could see the approval on Adam's face too.
"Why are you so stuck on… that part?" Rias asked. Xenovia had said the same thing to them when she came back. She had not hidden what she wanted from the start.
'That is why I didn't see a problem with her going after him. She could start slow with dating and go for marriage, why is she skipping stages like this?' Thankfully, Xenovia gave them an answer on the spot.
"I read in the books that a marriage is only proper when the couple has a child. So, I wanted to have that unbreakable bond." Her eyes shone as she touched her stomach, "Also, I have always wanted a child. But, working in the church made it impossible. So, now that I have become a devil, I plan to follow my desires till they are complete."
"Ufufu, that's very devil like I'd say." Akeno shared a smile with Rias. Although grown up in church, Xenovia had the makings of a Devil. However, it all depended on Adam in the end.
"So, Adam will you do it with me?" Xenovia asked again.
"…Let's take it slow. It isn't something you can do that willy-nilly." Adam cleared his throat.
"I understand, now I know that there is a chance." A smile appeared on Xenovia's lips. So, far she had shown minimal expressions, but now she showed a proper smile.
'She got him with that one,' Akeno giggled looking at Adam's realization.
